Bostwick Consistometer 24cm Standard Length

The Bostwick Consistometer is a small bench-top instrument for accurately checking laboratory or production samples against consistency, viscosity or flow rate standards. 

It is used world-wide to determine sample consistency by measuring the distance which a material flows under its own weight. 

Suitable for testing many viscous materials including:

- Tomato sauces, soups, purees

- Preserves, jams, jellies, pickles

- Cake fillings, icings, frostings

- Baby foods

- Salad dressings, mayonnaise

- Gravy, cheese sauces, ready meals,

- Cosmetics and paints

The unit is manufactured from stainless steel with a 95ml reservoir and has two levelling screws and a level.

A spring-operated gate is held by a positive release mechanism, permitting instantaneous flow of sample to be measured.

The trough is graduated in 0.5cm divisions to permit accurate measurement of flow. Complies to R-81294D and ASTM F1080-93.

Portable and easily cleaned.
